Some 2,500 members of the Moledet party will choose a new chairman this afternoon and evening. Two men are running: Party leader MK Benny Elon, who became temporary leader following the assassination of Tourism Minister Rehavam Ze\'evi, and the latter\'s son, Palmach Ze\'evi. Elon\'s chances received a major boost last night when the party\'s court accepted his position that the 700 new members who joined the party at the end of December should be eligible to vote. Ten polling booths are open in various cities until 9 PM, and the final results should be known by midnight.
